MONDAY MOTIVATION - Quotes

Thought I'd share some survivors quotes today...

"I explained to a friend what a TRAM flap procedure was; cutting a portion of my abdominal tissue and muscle and using it to reconstruct a new breast. Her reply? “So, when you get hungry, does your breast growl?” Haha!

"Paper gowns should be outlawed!"

"There is more to us than what is written on a chart or read in a test result."

"When I lost my hair, my lashes, and my eyebrows, it felt like I was being erased."

"Some days you fight totally for others' sake."

"Try to take on one worry at a time, and not obsess about the magnitude of your entire treatment. Yesterday is gone and tomorrow is yet to be. Today is more than enough for most of us to handle."

"I learned very early to look at what surgery, chemo and radiation was going to do FOR me instead of TO me. That made all the difference."

"Hope costs nothing to give, and is priceless to have."

"I have often thought of cancer as a schoolyard bully... he’s a bully with such a bad reputation that he no longer has to fight: just the mere thought of him could send people running. But all it takes is for a couple of people to stand up to the bully to diminish his reputation. That’s what a cancer success story does-it stares down the cancer bully. It shows that he can be beaten-and, believe me, he can!"

I know God won't give me anything I can't handle; I just wish He didn't trust me so much." --Mother Teresa

"With hope there is significant power."
